Easter Egg Cactus DIY

Easter is approaching and I am stoked about decorating my mantel. I thought it would be fun to paint some “cactus” eggs like I’ve seen around Pinterest. This craft was so easy and fun! Here’s what I used:

Plain white artificial eggs at Walmart

Tiny pots from Michael Craft

Acrylic Paint

Dirt (yup, I just used real dirt in these post)

Pink Felt

Glue Gun

I started by painting the eggs green. Once the paint was dry, I took a tiny paint brush to make the white dotted lines. As the eggs were drying I painted the pots. To make the flower on top of the eggs, I took a tiny piece of felt, scrunched it up and glued it to the top with hot glue. I then used hot glue to make the eggs stick to the dirt (although mine would probably stay put in the pot without the hot glue).
